PTSA:

The end of the school year is near and we would like to thank all of you who have help in any way this year through food donation, clothes, gift cards, volunteer hours, desserts, drinks, etc.... The PTSA and the school really appreciate it all.

For all of you that have graduates and don't know what to do with the uniforms and books you have, please consider donating them to the PTSA. The uniform shirts will be stored at the school and the used books will be sold at the school store for a minimal price or donated to classrooms if needed. Remember, all proceeds from the school store go back to helping the school and students through the PTSA.

School Supplies Backpacks for Haiti:

The end of the school year is almost here and most of you have backpacks you do not plan on using next school year. Luisa Hays, freshman at Palmetto, has joined efforts with Honorable Judge Fred Seraphin to provide backpacks filled with donated school supplies to an orphanage in Haiti. She is hoping to collect at least 30 gently used backpacks, fill them with age-appropriate school supplies, and ship them to Haiti by early August.

Please donate backpacks and any extra school supplies to the following locations where you will find donation boxes;

Mrs Meyers Room #400

Palmetto School Library

Or Carmen Hays

15001 SW 69 Court

Palmetto Bay, FL 33158

Please call (305) 987-0275 or email carmenhays@hotmail.com (Carmen Hays) with any questions.

Pinecrest People Mover

As the school year comes to a close, we are making preparations for the next year of the Pinecrest People Mover service. Our message is to inform students and parents that if they are interested in using the circulator service next year they need to let us know. If you have any questions please contact.
